The KTM Supercross Racing Team is pleased to announce that 23-year-old American Kyle Peters will stand in for injured Kirk Gibbs in the premier class of this year's Australian Supercross championship.

Australian Motocross Vice Champion Gibbs broke his femur in a training incident just a week ago, ruling him out of his intended representation in the Australian MXoN team, and his part in this year's Australian Supercross Championship, which begins at Jimboomba, Queensland on September 17.

Peters, who had arrived early in the country late last month to take up guest rides in the last two rounds of the MX Nationals, jumped at the chance to fill in on the KTM factory team, and has transitioned smoothly onto the KTM 450 SX-F.
